recommendation anymore. Lots. Even my dad is using a 13 inch Macbook
pro and he's having a ball with it. And my mom even writing Chinese
on the latest touch pad on it with ease.
I have been spending time to take things off and updating things on
the XP; it's just annoying. Turning the automatic update option off
gives me this red X shield telling me I have a problem. Right. Then
updating latest anti-virus program basically grinding my machine.
It's only a year old!!!! I was amaze the speed different with and
without all those extra pesky programs running behind the scene and IN
YOUR FACE MUST HAVE. Totally annoying with machine performance; maybe
there is the PC industry plan of sustaining itself. I just spent an
hour and a half getting my machines up to date so that I am ready to
teach a WebEx course. Let see, 3 hours of work but I am putting in an
hour and a half already to tune the machines; then another 2 hours at
client site the day before to make sure.. I think we lose $ on this
deal.
We were planning on upgrading iron-wife's 3 years old Macbook Pro to a
new one; but after verifying her needs and the quality of the machine
and its performance, we can wait for at least another year if not
longer. And I hardly spent time maintaining it or servicing it like I
have to do to Windows machines. And with the latest and wonderful
merging of technologies, small biz and personal usages of Apple are a
benefits. No need to worry about viruses as much and the performance
and services are superb.
And what's this with 7 different version of Windows 7 with 32-bit and
64-bit variants. Confusing. And some old hardware cannot even run on
the 64-bit as well as some existing software; so one buys a 64-bit and
then O... need to spend more. So a 800 dollars from BestBuy can turn
into a 1,500 dollars touch up. ....
